The 5-pin, 12-volt, Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay (1) is located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). Always refer to the label on the power distribution center cover for relay location.

REMOVAL

The Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay is located in the engine compartment within the Power Distribution Center (PDC). Always refer to the label on the power distribution center cover for relay location.

  1. Remove the power distribution center cover.
  2. Remove the relay from the power distribution center.
  3. Check the condition of the relay terminals and power distribution center connector terminals for damage or corrosion. Repair if necessary before installing the relay.
  4. Check for pin height (pin height should be the same for all terminals within the power distribution center connector). Repair if necessary before installing the relay.

The Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay is located in the engine compartment within the Power Distribution Center (PDC). Always refer to the label on the power distribution center cover for relay location.

  1. Install the relay to the power distribution center.

There are two Camshaft Position Sensors on the 2.0L (ECK) engine. The (1/1) Exhaust Camshaft Position Sensor (2) is mounted to the front face of the cylinder head on the same side as the exhaust camshaft. The (1/2) Intake Camshaft Position Sensor (1) is mounted to the rear face of the cylinder head on the same side as the intake camshaft. Both sensors are located nearest the number four cylinder end of the engine. Both sensor connectors have three wires.

  1. Thoroughly clean the knock sensor mounting hole. CAUTION: Over or under tightening the knock sensor mounting bolt will affect knock sensor performance, possibly causing improper spark control. Always use the specified torque when installing the knock sensor. Do not apply any adhesive, sealant or thread locking compound to the bolt.
  2. Install the knock sensor with mounting bolt (1). Tighten the mounting bolt to 25 N.m (18 ft. lbs.).
  3. Connect the electrical connector.
  4. Install the Intake manifold. Refer to «MANIFOLD, INTAKE, INSTALLATION, 2.0L»(ref-646216-S41091619692014072800000) or «MANIFOLD, INTAKE, INSTALLATION, 2.4L»(ref-646217-S42702145492014072800000) .
  5. Lower the vehicle.
